This news release constitutes a "designated news release" for the purposes of the Company's amended and restated prospectus supplement dated June 16, 2026 to its short form base shelf prospectus dated October 31, 2025.

San Antonio, Texas--(Newsfile Corp. - June 18, 2026) - HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd. (TSX: HIVE) (NASDAQ: HIVE) (FSE: YO0) (BVC: HIVECO) (the "Company" or "HIVE"), a global leader in sustainable digital infrastructure and AI compute, today announced that the Boden Municipal Council has approved the Company's acquisition of the Big Boden 32 MW data center from Bodens Utvecklings AB, the facility that has anchored HIVE's Swedish operations since 2018.

With this approval, HIVE transitions from tenant to owner, securing full authority over the site's future and converting nearly a decade of community partnership into permanent commitment.

Built in Boden: Eight Years of Local Investment

Over eight years, HIVE has invested more than 960 million SEK (approximately $100 million USD) in the Boden region through local contractors and renewable energy procurement, and has paid more than 575 million SEK (over $60 million USD) in taxes to the Swedish Tax Authority.

HIVE is a long-standing sponsor of the Boden Hockey League, supporting 12 youth teams and the club's newly established women's teams, and is the naming partner of HIVE Arena. The Company continues to work alongside Boden Municipality and Research Institute of Sweden ("RISE") to explore recovering heat generated by the data center for broader community use, a model that transforms energy infrastructure into a civic asset.

"We chose Boden in 2018 because the municipality understood, before most did, what sustainable digital infrastructure could look like," said Johanna Thörnblad, Country Site President, Sweden. "This acquisition is HIVE's clearest signal yet that Sweden is part of our long-term global strategy to build sovereign AI compute."

"This is an investment in Boden's future," said Béatrice Öman, Mayor of Boden Municipality. "HIVE has already shown that they want to be a long-term player here, and through this deal, the company is creating conditions for continued development in the municipality. It strengthens both our business community and Boden's position as a place for technologically advanced establishments."

From the Jungles of South America to the Edge of the Arctic Circle: Infrastructure That Gives Back

For HIVE, community partnership is not layered on top of operations. It is built into how the Company enters every market, with the intention to build infrastructure that serves the region, not just the balance sheet.
